"Excuse me, sir? Is it going to rain?"
I looked down from the beautifully cloudless sky to smile at the young human who asked the question. He was wearing a cadetÆs uniform no doubt he was worried it might get wet.
"No, I checked the forecast this morning. It will be totally clear all day." The cadet glanced down at the umbrella I carried, then gave me a wary look that made me chuckle. "And no, IÆm not crazy and IÆm not trying to trick you. I always carry an umbrella today, rain or shine."
The cadet still looked dubious, but he nodded respectfully. "Can I help you find anything, sir? I have a break before my next class and I can take you anywhere youÆre trying to go."
"IÆm headed over to the administration building. I know where it is, butģ itÆs an awfully long walk for an old man like me to take on his own. How about you escort me there and IÆll tell you the story behind this umbrella? And before you groan," I added as he seemed about to, "this works out for you too. If any of your instructors see you helping me itÆll make you look good. Deal?"
He seemed to consider that for a moment, before shrugging and giving me a smile. "Why not?" he said, and off we went.
So it was a day just like this one, totally clear sky and the forecast assured me that there would be no rain. But something ¢ I guess IÆll never know what it was ¢ something made me want to take my umbrella with me when I went out that evening to run some late errands. I felt like such an idiot walking towards the bus station. People actually stared at me! The forecast was never wrong, of course. Never.
I was nearly at the station when the sky started to darken with clouds blown in out of nowhere, and a few minutes later it started to sprinkle. By the time I got there it was raining hard. I heard later that there had been some computer glitch at the weather station, but at the time I was quite pleased with myself and IÆll admit I enjoyed watching everyone scramble around and try to cover themselves. Exceptģ there was one human woman standing there with a smile as she looked into a growing puddle.
I donÆt mean any offence, but I had never been really attracted to humans ¢ too much bare skin! If it hadnÆt been for the rain I doubt I would have said anything to her. But seeing her there, smiling and enjoying herself while everyone else was in a bad moodģ I was interested. And my umbrella gave me the perfect entrance to talk to her.
"Excuse me, miss?" I said, "Would you like to share my umbrella with me?"
She was several centimeters taller than me, so she had to look down when she spoke. "Your umbrella isnÆt big enough for the two of us, some of your fur will get wet."
I smiled and held out my umbrella anyway, stretching out my legs so I could hold it up high enough. "WonÆt be the first time." She smiled back at me and we moved our bodies close together. She was ratherģahģwell endowed compared to the usual Caitian, so even though I could feel my back getting wet I wasnÆt exactly unhappy. I was even beginning to like the way the water looked on her skin.
"Thank you," she said. "ItÆs nice to know someone had enough foresight to bring an umbrella."
"I donÆt know what happened with the weather forecast, IÆve never known them to be wrong before. But you looked like you were enjoying yourself."
"I think this might be the last chance I get to see rain for a long time. ItÆs a nice surprise."
Before I could ask her what she meant the bus pulled up. We sat together for a while without saying anything ¢ I am sure a young man like you knows how awkward that kind of situation is. Eventually, though, I found my courage.
"Do you live here, or are you on vacation?"
She chuckled. "I suppose it depends on how you define ælive.Æ I share a room over at the Academy."
"Oh, youÆre a cadet?"
"I graduated about a month ago. How about you?"
"IÆm an architect, I graduated a while back but you have to work for a licensed firm for a bit before you can take the test to get a license of your own. I still have about a year left. Our firm designed that new hospital they are building near the river."
She leaned against the side of the bus, tilting herself to get a better look at me. "That sounds like an interesting job. IÆve always loved things like that; I wish I had paid more attention in my art classes back in school."
I grinned. "I think itÆs funny someone who just graduated from a place that teaches you how to fly starships around thinks my job is interesting! I mostly do calculations at the moment, though."
She smiled, but we both fell silent again. I wanted to say somethingģ I didnÆt know when sheÆd be getting off and I didnÆt want to miss my chance. So, I decided to be direct.
"Heyģ are you heading anywhere important?" I said, "ThereÆs a nice coffee place nearby, IÆd love to hear about what your life was like in the Academy. ItÆd be my treat."
Her smile turned a little sad. "Thank you, but IÆm actually heading back to my room. IÆm leaving for my first deployment early tomorrow and since itÆs my first I have to be back at the Academy tonight. I think they got tired of people getting drunk and missing their ships in the morning! I wonÆt be back for a long time so IÆve just been enjoying my last day on Earth. ThatÆs why I was so happy to see the rain."
I had to work hard not to let my ears and tail show how disappointed I was ¢ IÆve always thought you humans were lucky not to have to worry about showing your emotional state so openly. I tried to think of something nice to say, some compliment or a way to wish her luck or anythingģ when another thought occurred to me. This woman was spending her last free hours on Earth by herself. Even if it couldnÆt go anywhere, maybe I could at least keep her company. Andģwell, IÆd been lucky with the umbrella. Why not give it a shot?
"When do you have to be back?" I said, "The coffee shop isnÆt that far from the Academy. I could treat you and then walk you to your room; it might be a fun way to spend the evening."
She looked down at the floor, but I could see she was grinning. "DonÆt you have anything to do? I donÆt want to keep you away from something just so you can keep me company."
"I can run my errands tomorrow. Besides, if you donÆt then IÆll have to find another girl to share my umbrella with and thatÆs the kind of inefficiency an architect just canÆt tolerate."
She had a beautiful laugh. "Okay. I should have enough time. Where do we get off?"
"That was pretty smooth," the cadet said. "Maybe I should write some of this down."
I chuckled and shook my head. "IÆm afraid that all my stuff was played out years ago, youÆll have to find your own material. You shouldnÆt need it anyway, just go out wearing that uniform and youÆll find some girls. IÆm sure youÆve experimented with that yourself!"
He grinned, and I continued my story.
We sat next to a window in the coffee shop so that we could watch the rain falling. Our conversation was filled with the little nothings that you use when youÆre getting to know someone. I was mostly looking at her. I noticed lots of small things IÆd never consciously thought about when I looked at humans ¢ like that little line of fur you have above your eyes. She had these beautiful blue eyes, IÆll never forget the way they looked. And though IÆm sure you wonÆt believe it seeing me now, I think she enjoyed watching me too. Soon, though, we talked more seriously.
"I hope you donÆt mind me asking," she said, "but are you from Cait? IÆve always wanted to visit."
I shook my head. "IÆve been there a few times but I was born here on Earth. My parents all emigrated from Cait years ago when my fatherÆs job moved." I paused. "I didnÆt like Cait much to be honest with you. I think you would have a good time, but there are parts of its culture I didnÆt like much."
"Really? What didnÆt you like?"
"This will sound funny to a human, but the problem is that my father only has one wife." She got this look on her face that made me grin, and I continued, "At least in traditional Caitian society, a huge amount of social standing comes from the amount of wives in your family unit. Since my father only had one he was treatedģwell, differently. Nothing really bad but it was always there. When we visited his family weÆd always be served food last, old æfriendsÆ of his wouldnÆt really want to talk to him, that kind of thing. The idea is that since he only has one wife something must be wrong with him ¢ and his wife, too, for picking such an obviously inferior man."
"IģdonÆt really know what to say. I knew Caitians liked to have six wives but I didnÆt realize there was a stigma against not doing so."
"It would take a lot of work to find six, but one is abnormally low. My father takes it hard; I think he even suspects there really must be something wrong with him. It pisses me off! Maybe itÆs cause I was born here but I donÆt think anyone should care. My family loves each other, what does it matter if there are two or six or ten or whatever? I really hate traditions like that."
She nodded slowly, so I continued.
"My parents are really trying to pressure me into meeting someone soon," I said, "and you should have seen how mad my mother got when I told her that I didnÆt care about meeting my firstwife. IÆd like to meet someone, but I want it to be whatever relationship works for the two of usģor three or seven or eleven!" We both laughed. "Who knows. Maybe one day I will have six wivesģ but if I do, itÆll be because we all want it and not because itÆs tradition. And it will certainly not be because people will think less of me otherwise."
"I really respect that," she said, "and I understand better than you might think. IÆm originally from the HCKNA." I blinked at her, and she gave me another sad smile. "That thought that just crossed your mind that I might be racist ¢ no, donÆt say anything, itÆs a reasonable response ¢ thatÆs one of the reasons I left. Not the only one, though." She sighed.
"You donÆt have to talk about it if you donÆt want to."
She shook her head. "No, I do. My family was very traditional and my mother expected me to get married quite young and start making grandbabies for her. I too know what itÆs like to get pressure to meet someone. SheÆd keep trying to set me up with these good religious boys ¢ what I might want in a mate never even crossed her mind. My father tried to support me but he was really dominated by mom, I never knew what brought them together." She grinned suddenly. "So of course I had to rebel. I started dating two guys ¢ two guys my mother wouldnÆt really approve of ¢ at the same time. They knew about each other, even really liked each other, and we were all pretty happy with thingsģ until my mom found out. She called their parents, I never saw one of them again and I wasnÆt allowed to see the other alone." She shook her head. "I got out of there as soon as I was legally able to, didnÆt say goodbye or anything. I just left."
"IÆm really sorryģnow I donÆt know what to sayģ"
"ItÆs okay. Actually, things turned out well. When I got here I found that my father had deposited some money in my name with a message ¢ Good for you! " She smiled. "Divorce is hard there but he eventually separated from my mother and he told me that I was the one who gave him to courage to do it. That made me feel good. He came to my graduation last month."
"I donÆt think IÆd ever be strong enough to do something like that. IÆd have a terrible time leaving everything."
"DonÆt be so sure," she said. "It looks like youÆve already made a few good choices in your life." She reached out and rested her fingers on the back of my hand, moving them slowly up and down over my fur. "Like asking me to have coffee with you."
I looked over to see the cadet smiling with a blush on his face. "Ahhh, so youÆve had a girl do that to your hand too," I said. "I wonder what it feels like for a human, without the fur in the way?"
The cadet grinned. "It feels good, sir."
To continue the story, we spent quite a while in that coffee shop. Mostly looking at each other, but we talked a little more too. Many things that wonÆt interest a young man like you. ItÆs enough to say that we were happy together.
Eventually, though, we had to start heading to the Academy. We stayed close to each other, not saying anything. Maybe youÆre too young to have had this happen, but when you really connect with someone you donÆt have to talk much. ItÆs enough to just be near them. Once, though, she did speak.
"I like the way you walk," she said, "it makes me smile. It always looks like youÆre about to fall over, though!"
I laughed. "Hey, youÆre one to talk! IÆve never figured out how humans can even move with those straight legs of yours!"
She laughed back at me, and then got a sly look on her face. She stood up on her tiptoes and started trying to imitate the way digigrade legs work ¢ I swear to you it was one of the funniest things IÆve ever seen. She even æaccidentallyÆ bumped into me so I had to put an arm around her. That was a smooth move on her part. As for me, maybe I æaccidentallyÆ kept it around her as we kept walking.
It didnÆt take me long to notice that we were headed in a different direction than the Academy. When I asked her about it she told me we were going to take a detour ¢ we ended up at the spaceport next door. I donÆt know if youÆve ever just watched the spaceport at night, but the colors the shuttles make when they come and go are very beautiful, and the rain made it even better. We stood there, my arm around herģ I donÆt know how long, but it was wonderful. I tried to pretend that weÆd be able to stay there forever, but eventually she pulled away gently and smiled at me.
"I only have about twenty minutes left." She reached out a hand to touch my face, and continued "Thank you for making my last night on Earth a good one."
"Thank you for letting me," I said, and then I hesitated a little. "Thisģ will probably come out wrong, but I want to tell you something. IÆve never really been attracted to humans before, but I think you are beautiful. I wish this didnÆt have to end here."
She looked into my eyes, and then towards the Academy, and then back at me. "How far away do you live?"
I smiled and shook my head. "IÆm flattered, but itÆs half an hour round trip regardless of what we wanted to do there."
"I know what I want to do there. Actuallyģ itÆs not uncommon for people to be late for this. ItÆs one of the reasons they do it, so if youÆre late now you wonÆt miss your ship. IÆll get in trouble, get chewed out but I can handle that, and IÆll just be put on some duty I donÆt want for a few days. LetÆs go to your place."
"I canÆt do that to you, it wouldnÆt be rightģ."
She put a hand over my mouth. "Take me home with you. IÆll be okay. ItÆs my last night on Earth, remember? LetÆs make it perfect."
So I did. Weģ
I saw the cadet stiffen, and I noticed a group of very important looking officers heading away from the now nearby administration building. They all looked over at us, and one of the group broke away and started heading in our direction.
"Well," I said, "looks like I should finish up. I took her home ¢ I am sure a young man like you knows what we did there ¢ and when she left she told me that IÆd better send her a message to make up for the punishment she was going to get. And that is the story of one of the best nights of my life. If I hadnÆt had that umbrella with me, or if it hadnÆt rained like it did, I would have never met her. So now you know why I have this with me."
"ThatÆs a good story," the cadet said. "Did you ever see her again?"
"Cadet!" said the figure approaching us, now clearly visible with the rank insignia of an admiral. "Is this old Caitian bothering you?"
"No maÆam! I was escorting him to the administration building, maÆam."
I tried hard not to laugh. "Yes, I did see her again. And now, so have you."
The cadet looked back and forth between the admiral and myself as she spoke. "Were you telling him the story of how we met?" I nodded, and she continued "See, what I bet this old man hasnÆt told you yet is that he eventually did get six wives. But not a single one of them is Caitian!"
I grinned. "That will have to be a story for another time, IÆm afraid. Thank you for the escort, young man. And here, why donÆt you take this." I handed him the umbrella, which he took gingerly with a questioning look.
"I thought it wasnÆt supposed to rain today, sir?" he said.
"Oh, itÆs not. But like the admiral here said, I already have six wives. If anyoneÆs going to get lucky with it today itÆll be you. And who knows? Maybe it will rain after all and youÆll share it with a girl you like."
The cadet smiled and nodded to me. "Thank you, sir. MaÆam," he said, and then started back in the direction we came from.
"HeÆs going to look completely absurd with that umbrella, dear," the admiral said, "but that was sweet."
"Hey, maybe it will rain!"
She shook her head. "ThereÆs an outdoor meeting ¢ thatÆs where I was headed. ItÆs been checked thoroughly, dear. It wonÆt rain today. But if you can keep a secret ¢ I wish it would. Might wash some of those blowhards away!" We both laughed, and then she got a more serious look on her face. "IÆm so sorry IÆm going to miss our anniversary. This function is just politics but I have to attend and it looks like IÆll be getting home even later than I thought. WerenÆt the others going to take you out somewhere?"
"They were, but I decided to relive a little of the past and so IÆve been walking around. I was going to see if I could say hi to you, and then IÆm headed to the spaceport.
She blinked. "Why are you headed to the spaceport?"
"Cause itÆs the last place we went that day. I still love to watch the colors there. Andģ" I was suddenly a little embarrassed. "Being there always makes me feel like youÆre with me, no matter where you are. When you were away on missions sometimes IÆd go there and remember how beautiful you are."
She looked into my eyes just the way she had that night, then at the receding group of officers, then back at me. "LetÆs go to the spaceport together."
"I thought you had to go to this function!"
"Screw it. TheyÆll grumble when IÆm late but I can deal with it. Besides, IÆm an admiral now! WhatÆs the point of getting this far if I canÆt break the rules occasionally?" And so she took my hand in hers and we started walking.
We hadnÆt gotten more than halfway there when it started to rain.

With the US political season close to reaching its November climax, any last-minute endorsements are likely welcomed and publicized by the presidential candidates -except, maybe, this one.
Washington: With the US political season close to reaching its November climax, any last-minute endorsements are likely welcomed and publicized by the presidential candidates -except, maybe, this one.
Surveying 339 porn industry members, XBIZ said that 68 percent of respondents wanted Obama to win the presidential election, compared to 13 percent who favored Republican rival Mitt Romney. Another 14 percent said they wanted to see "someone else" in the White House, while five percent said they didn't care who won.
Porn industry kingpin Larry Flynt, who in September took out full-page ads in the Washington Post and USA Today offering $1 million for details of Romney's tax returns or offshore assets, told XBIZ that he was "not surprised" by the poll results.
Steven Hirsch, another businessman in the X-rated industry, echoed Flynt's reaction.
"The results aren't really surprising because most people involved with the adult industry have a liberal view of government and how it should work," he told XBIZ.
"Social issues are more important than fiscal issues and they will support a candidate who shares their beliefs."
According to XBIZ, adult film officials are also against Romney because of his promise to prosecute porn producers for obscenity violations, if he is elected president.
Patrick Trueman, head of Morality in Media, an organization that opposes lewd films, denounced the Obama administration's stance toward the distribution of hardcore pornography.
"The porn industry is flourishing because the Obama administration has given a green light to distribute hardcore porn to every man, woman, and child in America," Trueman told the Los Angeles Times Thursday.

Back in mid December, us girlie a-go-gos headed out for what we imagined would be a tea adventure. There was a crazy mix-up (all sorts of I thought, you thought, didn't they and all that....) and no tea was adventured but we did finally make it to Ruby Rose, a lovely vintage shop in town.
So lovely, I lost myself in taking pictures and chatty-chat-chatting with the shop goddesses themselves. There were globes and lovely paintings and a crazy awesome hot pink wool tapestry that if not for my allergies would be under my feet in the new tiny casa right now. I was not able to make a purchase that day but goodness know I will be back. Everything is all dreamy-swoony and the ladies of the shop are just as delightful. If yer ever in the San Luis Obispo area, check them out.

GhostWridah - Mic Freak
Artist: GhostWridah
Featuring: Billy Blue
Producer: Slot-A
Album: None (Promo Single)
Avg Rating: 3.2 ( 6 votes )
As an emcee so skilled that he can spit a dope verse with his Eyes Closed (as he boasted in his last feature), it stands to reason that GhostWridah would be a magnet for women attracted to lyrical excellence. On a brand new promotional single, the Miami fave pays tribute to his personal Mic Freak—a chick packing the enviable combination of looks, sexual prowess, and appreciation for quality beats and rhymes. Supporting Ghost on the production tip, fellow Booth regular and Chicago native Slot-A crafts a smooth, slow-rolling instrumental to match the artist's freaky bars, and fellow Magic City resident Billy Blue tops the record off with a steamy guest 16 dedicated to a freak of his own acquaintance. This joint isn't attached to any forthcoming project, but fans can download Mic Freak courtesy of Audiomack at the link above.

Germany - Bremen
From: 2015.10.19 To: 2015.11.04
Since the year 1035, when the Emperor Conrad II granted the Archibishop of Bremen the right to hold a fair in the fall, locals and visitors have worked together to consume hectoliters of beer each October. While this event is not as globally popular as nearby Bavaria's "Octoberfest," participants certainly have as much beer-drinking fun. It's a two-week fair and folk festival, one of Germany's largest and most historical events. There's also a Freimarktsumzug parade, which is made up of over one-hundred brightly decorated floats which flood the streets of the city. Keep in mind that 4 hectoliter = 400 liter of beer. Lend a helping hand to your German brothers by downing a few liters yourself. Bottoms up!

WorldWide Religious News |
North America
Muslim students find similarities with Mormons Salt Lake City, USA - He's been to LDS general conference and sacrament meeting, given a family home evening lesson and shared his beliefs during fast and testimony meeting. But the one thing that still puzzles Talha Siddiqui, 19, a Muslim from Islamabad, Pakistan, is why Latter-day Saint students at Brigham Young University in Provo are so eager to get married. "It's kind of funny how to an outsider everyone is talking about getting married," he said. "How can you all think about the same thing? That kind of felt a little weird for me. Other than that, things have been great." Siddiqui is one of 10 Pakistani students studying at BYU, where he says he's been warmly welcomed. "If I tell (someone) I'm not a Mormon, I'm Muslim from Pakistan, they generally have some questions to ask," he said. "Initially, they're surprised to hear that I've come totally from the other side of the world. But I don't think anyone has been mean to me." Both Siddiqui and Sameer Ahmad, 20, who is originally from Lahore, Pakistan, came to BYU on the advice of friends and family members who had attended or visited. They were impressed with the Marriott School of Management, the low tuition and the high moral standards. But the unique Provo/Mormon culture has been a bit of an adjustment, even though Ahmad grew up in New York City. "Back in New York City if you say 'hi' to someone, they assume you're selling them drugs," Ahmad said. "Over here, every other person (says hi). You have to get used to that. It's unusual in a nice way." When Ahmad learned Siddiqui was coming to BYU, he contacted him, figuring "he might need some help." "Two years ago I was in the same shoes," Ahmad said. "Utah is a really different place." But since being here, they both said they're impressed with the similarities between the two cultures and religions. As Muslims, Siddiqui and Ahmad shun alcohol, illicit drugs and pre-marital sex — the same values promoted in the BYU Honor Code. The men also pray several times a day, focus on the family and stress the importance of religious study and repentance. "Whenever I'm talking about the religions, I try to bring up similarities," Siddiqui said. "I think that's a good way of talking about religion." And both men are happy to share their beliefs. This semester, Siddiqui taught his friends and roommates about Islam during family home evening. Last November, Ahmad won the BYU Religious Education Student Symposium with a paper he'd written during his Book of Mormon class comparing Mormonism and Islam. "We emphasize the same teachings, the same set of beliefs, even though the way of participating (is different)," Ahmad said. "We're essentially asking for the same thing, asking God for guidance and for repentance. As long as we keep respecting those (common values) it builds mutual trust and is helpful in the long run." Andrew Moulton, 19, Siddiqui's friend and roommate from Oregon, said this semester has been enlightening for him. "I didn't know that our cultures were so similar," Moulton said. "As Americans we are taught to believe that Islam is a violent culture and stuff like that, but it's not. I think that was my initial surprise, (to learn) what wonderful people Muslims are."

Ex-city manager finalist in Kansas
Former City Manager Skip Noe was named one of five finalists for the Wichita, Kan., city manager's job on Friday.
Noe, 57, resigned under pressure in September after five years as Corpus Christi's top administrator and nine years with the city.
He and the other four candidates will be interviewed next week by the Wichita City Council and a committee of residents, a city news release said.
The other candidates are Norton Bonaparte Jr., the Topeka, Kan., city manager; William Buchanan, the Sedgwick County manager; Floyd Johnson, the Riviera Beach, Fla., community redevelopment agency executive director; and Robert Layton, the Urbandale, Iowa, city manager.
Efforts to reach Noe on Friday were unsuccessful.
As Wichita considers Noe, Corpus Christi is considering hiring Wichita's interim city manager, Scott Moore, to replace Noe. The City Council this week named Moore and Interim City Manager Angel Escobar as the top finalists for the position.
Moore is not eligible to apply for Wichita's top job because of a law in the city's charter restricting the interim from being considered. Moore applied for the job while serving as the city's assistant city manager and was told he didn't have enough experience, he said. Instead, he took the interim job and started looking for jobs in other cities, including Corpus Christi.
Noe's resignation was effective Sept. 1, although he announced his resignation in late May. He offered to stay through August so he could finish work compiling a list of bond projects and get it on the November ballot.
Some council members criticized Noe for communication problems and mismanagement of the city's water problems.
Noe received a $178,333 annual salary when he worked for Corpus Christi.

We recently spent 8 days at Crowne Plaza Times Square. Expensive but I understand all hotels in this location are. We were there during cyclone Sandy so understandably service not 100% but under the circumstances not bad. We had no hot water for a few days but again completely understandable. Metro closed so was great being such a central location. We didn't take a cab or any public transport the whole time. Literally across the road from theatres that we went to. Restaurants everywhere so we only ate in the hotel once. That was ok. The room was on the 49th floor and very comfortable and spacious (thankyou Tom at front desk). Would definately recomment Crowne Plaza Times Square but I think if we do visit Manhattan again probably wouldn't stay in Times Square. Very touristy! We spent a couple of nights at a hotel in Soho when we first arrived in New York but moved due to the hurricane, no power etc but loved that part of Manhattan and look forward to going back there
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):

ErrorBars interface
Represents the error bars on a chart series.
Namespace: Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word
Assembly: Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word (in Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.dll)
Error bars indicate the degree of uncertainty for chart data. Only series in area, bar, column, line, and scatter groups on a 2-D chart can have error bars. Only series in scatter groups can have x and y error bars. This object isn't a collection. There's no object that represents a single error bar; you either have x error bars or y error bars turned on for all points in a series or you have them turned off.
The ErrorBar(XlErrorBarDirection, XlErrorBarInclude, XlErrorBarType, Object, Object) method changes the error bar format and type.
Use the ErrorBars property to return the ErrorBars object. The following example turns on error bars for series one of the first chart in the active document and then sets the end style for the error bars.

Serenity in Tuscany
July 7, 2012
We followed dean and jane, previous review, into casa quintino after two weeks seeing paris, colmar, Verona and Venice, and this is what we needed! If you want HD tv, air on, pool go find a holiday inn, if you want to experience Tuscan scenery, tranquility, sunsets, wine, real Italian towns and a rustic renovated stone farmhouse then stay here. We drove to all the towns around on advice from attentive owners Antoni and Juliette, seeing medieval walled towns, castles, ruined abbeys and wineries. We drank at the "local" where my lack of,Italian proved no barrier to a good time. We watched deer in the paddock , heard hogs in the wallow, watched birds of all types and heard nothing but frogs crickets bird calls as we sat on back verandah reading a book and sipping local chianti. We walked the property amongst 600 year old monk constructed walls and Chappell, counted stars and marveled that in a country so busy and populated,that anywhere could be so peaceful,or well located. Although we loved sienna, San ginmnano and Vinci, our favorite remained volterra only 25 minutes drive along scenic road cluttered with tractors, three wheel mr bean cars, and scenery to die for. Volterra was small but amazingly historic, whilst feeling like a real place and not too busy. Ral artisans still carve alibastar, make bronze pieces and gold jewelry in the style of,the Etruscans who have been in the area for 4000 years! Eat,drink and take in the museums without suffering the heat and queues of Florence and Pisa althought these,are both easily,accessible if you want to do these as well. We did,not want a 5 star hotel with all mod cons, we,wanted a five star tuscan experience and we got it!! We would trave
From Australia to stay here again and would recommend it to our friends. Check the web page and make sure it is what you want, the house is along 2 km of dirt track, we,only had downstairs formtwomofmus and there is no tv, no air con, no Susan and spa, just a very comfortable living area, bedroom, nice bathroom and a verandah with views to the stars. I could have believed we were the only people in Tuscany unless we looked to the twinkling lights of volterra through the trees in the Forrest next to the house. If you want to se stress, this is the place for you, grab a couple bottles of,local chianti, a good book and go!!

Comments about Hamster Potty:
A few months ago I decided to get an hamster and saw that I could buy her a litter box, I was sceptical about weather or not she would use it or not and I am not sure wather or not it's because she was very young or for any other reason but she liked useing to potty a lot and would use it every time she needed to pee, which reduced the smell of her cage, although she will poop in it too she still poops around her cage as well. The problem I was having with the teritional litter boxes (that are the triangular one that you place in the coner of a cage) was that the sides werent high enough and my hamster alway really enjoys diggin in the litter (which is another plus about useing a litter box) but this would push the litter over the edge of the box and scatter it into her cage which caused me to need to refill it more offten. So I decided to buy this product in hopes that it would contain the litter better, which it dose and all in all i am very happy with my purches!

Product Description
Domaine Olivier Hillaire 2010 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Les Petite Pieds d'Armand
100% Grenache | Alc: % – Big and Bold
Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Rhone, France
Critical Acclaim:
"A real blockbuster as well as a massive example of old vine Grenache is the 2010 Chateauneuf du Pape Les Petits Pieds d'Armand. Only 260 cases were produced in 2010 as the Grenache yields were unusually small in this vintage. However, that has added an extra level of concentration. This wine ratchets up the power, concentration, glycerin, opulence and density, revealing a deep purple color in addition to extraordinarily pure black raspberry, black cherry and cassis flavors intermixed with licorice, spring flowers and incense. The alcohol must be in excess of 16%. This unctuously textured, gorgeously concentrated wine is a monument to old vine Grenache grown in the southern Rhone. It should drink well for 15-20 years.
This tiny estate, which used to be part of the Domaine des Relagnes, produces two cuvees of Chateauneuf du Pape, the traditional cuvee from terroirs near Clos St.-Jean and Grand Pierre, and a 100% old vine Grenache offering called Les Petits Pieds d'Armand from ancient vines (nearly 110 years of age) planted in sandy soil. Besides making first-class wines, Olivier Hillaire is also the village's top baker." 98 Points – The Wine Advocate
"One of my favorite wines and a blockbuster in the vintage, the 100% old vine Grenache 2010 Les Petits Pieds d'Armand comes all from the famed La Crau lieu-dit and vines planted in 1899. Offering up a totally brilliant bouquet of kirsch liqueur, creamy raspberry, licorice, and the essence of mixed garrigue and crushed flowers, this full-bodied, powerful, and decadent Châteauneuf-du-Pape is exceedingly concentrated, textured, and rich. Even better than the "07 and hanging onto plenty of freshness and elegance, this full throttle Grenache should be given 5-6 years of bottle age, and then enjoyed over the following decade or more." 98 pts – The Rhone Report
"A very fruit-driven style, with a lovely mélange of blueberry, fig, blackberry and boysenberry notes all melded together and framed by light toasty vanilla, anise and alderwood notes. There's a lovely racy feel through the finish, though this keeps the fruit focused rather than overly exuberant. Shows good vivacity. Best from 2014 through 2028." 94 pts – Wine Spectator

I figured there isn't really a "smart" way of getting the perfect crop, unless there is some plug in that lets you scale and drag your mouse around the image to pick the perfect area..
How you guys go about that?
Well, I know a lot of people don't know about the "Edit image" button under the "Media" Wordpress admin tab, that is included in the wordpress instalation. The button is right under the image thumb that you will upload in Media section.
There is an actual image editor, that works like a plugin. You can also read THIS To see what you can do with an image (Scale Image, Image Crop, Crop Aspect Ratio, Crop Selection….)
Hope this will help.
Oh nice, yeah never noticed the Edit Image option. That's good to know. Thanks for the link I will go through it, this helps.
Turns out that "Edit Image" crop thing doesn't seem to work for Featured Image. Anyone know whats up with that?
After the crop the I add the new cropped image to be my Featured Image, however it still selects the original image. eh..

The first two photos of the new lineup of the Geoff Tate-fronted version of QUEENSRŸCHE can be seen below.
Although a lineup for Tate's QUEENSRŸCHE was originally announced in the fall of 2012, things have changed. The band will now feature Tate along with bassist Rudy Sarzo (OZZY OSBOURNE, DIO, WHITESNAKE, QUIET RIOT), guitarist Kelly Gray (QUEENSRŸCHE 1998-2001), keyboardist Randy Gane and new additions, guitarist Robert Sarzo (QUIET RIOT, HURRICANE) and drummer Simon Wright (AC/DC, DIO, RHINO BUCKET). Wright takes over for previously announced drummer Bobby Blotzer, who will be returning to RATT as an integral part of the band that made him famous. "I'm very much looking forward to being involved in the QUEENSRŸCHE project with Geoff," stated Wright. "I've always admired his singing and songwriting and working with Rudy Sarzo again is going to be cool! Between this and my other project, DIO DISCIPLES, I look forward to a very busy year!" The new album from the Geoff Tate-fronted version of QUEENSRŸCHE is due later in the year via the Los Angeles-based independent label Cleopatra Records. Guest musicians set to appear on the CD include Y&T mainman Dave Meniketti, legendary guitar slinger K.K. Downing of JUDAS PRIEST, KING'S X guitarist Ty Tabor, NIGHT RANGER guitarist Brad Gillis and Blotzer. Tabor comments, "I'm very happy that Geoff considered me for this record. It will be great to play with all of these great musicians." Beginning in early April, Tate's QUEENSRŸCHE will be hitting the road to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the band's epic 1988 release, "Operation: Mindcrime", performing all fifteen songs from the album along with other well-known hits and rarities from the catalog they've compiled over the past 30 years. "I try to surround myself with the best players available and feel our longtime fans deserve nothing less," says Tate. "I expect the forthcoming effort to be one of our best yet." Tate, who was fired from QUEENSRŸCHE in June 2012 after fronting the group for three decades, last year sought to prevent his former bandmates from touring and operating under the QUEENSRŸCHE name without him. While ruling against Tate, the presiding judge determined that there was no legal hurdle in Tate also using the name with an all-new lineup of musicians. "I don't see any reason that Mr. Tate can't have the benefit, if he gets other members, of whatever name he uses of using the brand," Superior Court Judge Carol A. Schapira said during the July 13, 2012 court hearing. "I think [doing that would be] inherently confusing, although I'm sure the market can get these things sorted out," she added. Last November, Tate released his first solo CD in over a decade titled "Kings & Thieves" (InsideOut Music) and toured with his solo band in support of the CD, which included dates with the legendary ALICE COOPER.GEOFF TATE's QUEENSRŸCHE: First Photos Of New Lineup Released

I'm not at all convinced it was innocent, u38cg—and if I'm right, it's totally a headline win.
WI-FI charges in hotels, airports, etc are often outrageous—my personal record is €20 ($27) for an hour at a hotel in Brussels. One easy way round this is to stay only at hotel chains where internet access is free in all room classes. This is the case at Radisson hotels, and I have boycotted Marriotts for years for this reason.
Another is to buy a pay-as-you go dongle for the laptop. I have one from Vodafone which works in most places in Britain (GPRS and G3). It cost me £25 ($37) and I spent another £25 on credit which I have so far never needed to top up. The credit does not expire, and the device saves me a fortune at airports, and also works on trains.
Annoyingly these are not easily available in other countries. I have tried and failed to find a multi-country pay-as-you-go dongle (the ones with a monthly payment or roaming charges are extortionately expensive)—and would welcome any suggestions.

The Rest of the Field Soldiers OnPosted on Jan 9, 2008
Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Mike Huckabee and John McCain have gotten plenty of ink in the last week, but the other candidates for president want you to know they're still in it. John Edwards, who staked a lot on Iowa and placed second there, says he will campaign until his party's convention because, "Up until now, about half of 1 percent of Americans have voted." Mitt Romney also has pledged to push on until the end. Rudy Giuliani, who has performed terribly so far, is hoping Florida and other big states will give his campaign the boost it sorely needs.

By GW=MCHammered, January 9, 2008 at 10:57 am Link to this comment Obama Girl has me standing firm for the '08 vote. My resolve stands tall against the GOP and is only further hardened by Obama Girl's red hot passion. She's quickened the heart of all voters and energized politics with a sonsie hot breath of fresh air. Now that's penetrating politics! http://www.barelypolitical.com/obama-girl/episode/BaRocky6_OrigMusic
By steve, January 9, 2008 at 10:46 am Link to this comment Although you have to admire his courage for continuing, the only people who really have a say in who becomes the next president come from the boards of Blue Cross, Cigna, Humana, and all the other medical insurance and pharmaceutical companies. And of course those running the Carlyle Group and I'm sure even a few top executives from Fox News. No one else has any say in who becomes the next president. Get out the vote!!!!!! Yeah right!!!! How stupid is that!!!! It is all a game to fool us…the American public…into believing we actually have a say in anything. For all you bloggers out there and everyone else who is getting crazy over Hillary or Barack or whoever…you don't count and your vote doesn't count.
By rage, January 9, 2008 at 10:22 am Link to this comment Kucinich - Richardson 2008! Because, the top three bought-n-bossed ringers really ain't the be-all to end-all!
By Joe R., January 9, 2008 at 6:15 am Link to this comment Edwards is the only real Democratic candidate that is running this year. He is the only one that is talking about the real issues. He is the only one who talks about the corruption of Washington and corporate America. I hope many of you will contribute to John's campaign. He has the fight it will take to overcome the corruption that has become America. |

Superb Products for Naming Your School Items
Tens of thousands of UK parents have been re-ordering Label Planet's name labels year after year since 2004.
Our STIKINS ® name labels are a revolutionary alternative to the traditional methods of labelling garments, which require labels to be individually ironed on or sewn in by hand. The unique material and adhesive of STIKINS ® means that these name labels will simply stick on and stay on.
We are incredibly excited as this product has gone from strength to strength and the feedback we have received has been wonderful. STIKINS ® are the result of a breakthrough in the adhesive and label material manufacturing industry. The adhesive bond is washer-proof, and the unique vinyl material is so soft and pliable that it won't cause any irritation or discomfort. The size of the label (30mm by 15mm) is also a perfect size for labelling all sorts of other school items, including lunch boxes, shoes and bags, and personal items such as books and stationery. In 2013 we introduced an improved version of STIKINS ®, which are printed with a new advanced ink that is resistant to sun-cream.
Our newest product is TRONS ® iron-on name transfers, which are a brilliant alternative to traditional iron-on name labels. These name transfers are extremely thin and are made of a single layer of material impregnated with ink; when applied directly to fabric or to wash-care and garment labels these transfers produce a permanent solution to the problem of labelling fabric with a name – even troublesome socks!
We are very much looking forward to helping even more mums and dads across the country to label their kids' school items quickly and easily so that they can get on with the more important things in life!

A once-mysterious donor who gave $1 million to a pro-Mitt Romney political action committee in April contributed the maximum amount to Romney's presidential campaign three weeks later, an Associated Press review found.
Edward Conard came forward this weekend as the man behind the donation from New York firm W Spann LLC, founded shortly before giving the $1 million check to Romney-leaning Restore Our Future PAC. W Spann dissolved three months later, business records show, prompting outrage from campaign-finance watchdogs who said the secret contribution violated the law.
Conard is a former executive at Boston-based Bain Capital, which was co-founded by Romney in 1984. Conard could not be immediately reached for comment Saturday.
Federal Election Commission records show that in May, Conard and his wife, Jill, gave to Romney's presidential committee $2,500 each — the maximum allowed under federal regulations by individuals to presidential candidates. Edward Conard also gave $2,300 toward Romney's 2008 White House run, records show.
The new developments surrounding Restore Our Future's contributions show how political donors — bound by dollar limits during each election cycle — can now give much more cash to outside groups that favor certain candidates.
Created by former aides to Romney, Restore Our Future raised $12.2 million during the first six months of 2011. The outside group is not officially connected to Romney, the former Massachusetts governor, and can receive endless funds from individuals and corporations, thanks in part to the 2010 Supreme Court ruling known as "Citizens United."
"They're raising unlimited money from donors who can only give limited contributions to the candidate himself, and then are spending money directly to support the candidate," said Fred Wertheimer, president of watchdog Democracy 21, which called on the Justice Department and FEC this week to investigate the contribution.
"The whole operation is a sham," he said, "and the sooner we figure out how to do something about this, the better."
In a prepared statement, Restore Our Future spokeswoman Brittany Gross said: "We're glad Mr. Conard has chosen to come forward, putting an end to this supposed controversy. Restore Our Future will amend our report per Mr. Conard's request to reflect him as the donor."
